passive checks and notification intervalls

Hello Nagios-Devel,

I'm using passive plugins to check interfaces, cpu and memory usages
on a regular basis (from crontab).

The plugins are written in perl, and submit check results with Nagios::Cmd
which works great.

The only problem is: If for e.g. an interface is critical, the plugin
submits a CRITICAL check result every 5 min to Nagios.

Nagios in turn is not honoring the notification_interval (which is
set to 120), and sends out Notifications every time a result is
submitted - this can be very uncomfortablly with notifications as SMS :-)

Is there a way to get Nagios honoring notification_interval with
passive checks ?

Best Regards,
Andreas
